摘要
The intrinsic bistability of double-barrier heterostructures has been analyzed by using the nonequilibrium Keldysh formalism. In this approach, the induced electron charge in the well is calculated as a function of the applied bias and the electrostatic potential induced in the heterostructure. Self-consistency is achieved by relating this induced potential to the electron charge. Detailed results for different AlAs/GaAs/AlAs double barriers have been analyzed and show good agreement with the experimental results. A bistability behavior is found for high dopings.
